Sublime Virtue

Meer over het boek

Exploring the concept of 'sainthood' free from traditional church ideology, Andrew Shanks presents a fresh perspective through the lens of twelve novelists. He delves into their portrayals of virtuous characters, offering insights into how these representations challenge conventional notions of sanctity. Shanks' analysis invites readers to reconsider the essence of virtue and its place in contemporary literature, fostering a deeper understanding of moral complexity in the narrative of sainthood.
